Funnily enough Runrev claims to be Hypercard's natural successor; but . . . Ok, Ok, Ok; I can't crack marrowbones with my teeth like some of my Neanderthal forefathers. However; I would not describe Hypercard as 'primitive'; a word I might be inclined to use about Neanderthal hunter-gatherers. "-------------------------------------------------- set [the] soundChannel to /integerValue/ --------------------------------------------------- set soundChannel to value(the soundChannel) + 1 --------------------------------------------------- if the soundChannel = 1 then play theTune --------------------------------------------------- integerValue resolves to a whole number in the range 1 through 8. ThesoundChannelproperty is the channel through which sound is played. The sound must have been generated by theplaycommand. Theplay command operates on the current sound channel. By immediately switching channels and playing new sounds, several sounds can be played nearly simultaneously. " Unfortunately I cannot get Hypercard to spin off a standalone to play "Oh, Why are we waiting?" on QT instruments that will run on any reasonably contemporary operating system . . . . :) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
